A Terp leads the NFL in interceptions. JC Jackson tallied an interception for the third straight week as he picked off Josh Allen (while covering fellow Terp Stefon Diggs) for his fourth interception of the season, tied for the league lead.
More on JC vs. Stef, another solid night for DJ Moore and Yannick's Baltimore debut Week Eight of Terps in the NFL:
JC Jackson
Patriots CB JC Jackson continues to star for New England, tallying his league-best fourth interception of the season, five tackles (three solo) and a pass breakup while covering fellow Terp, Bills WR Stefon Diggs.
Just call JC Mr. INT
Many think JC has been the best player on the Patriots this year.
High praise from his teammate Stephon Gilmore and his coach Bill Belichick.
Stefon Diggs
The other side of the Jackson vs. Diggs matchup resulted in Bills WR Stefon Diggs leading the Bills with six receptions for 92 yards and now stands second in the NFL with 695 receiving yards.
More important than his stats, Diggs got the DUB and he was pumped about it.
BILLS WIN ❤️💙

Yannick Ngakoue
DL Yannick Ngakoue came home last week as he was traded to the Baltimore Ravens from the Minnesota Vikings, making his mother very, very happy.
Back in the state he played his college ball:
